Quad City Enterprise Zone

The City of Moline is a participant in the Illinois Quad City Enterprise Zone. Moline works in cooperation with East Moline, Milan, Rock Island, Silvis, and Rock Island County to expand the enterprise zone to assist projects using tax incentives. According to the application to expand enterprise zones, the intent of the program is to create and retain jobs, remove conditions that make it difficult for a project to move forward, and to improve opportunities for revitalization of neighborhood residential and commercial districts.

Corporate contribution deduction - Corporations would make contributions to designated zone organizations for projects approved by DCEO and claim a deduction that would be double the value of the contribution.

Fee Schedule

Zone Amendments - $2,500 fee to cover the costs of the application.

New Projects within the Zone - $250 set up fee

New Certificates within a Project - $75 per vendor

Maximum fee per project would be limited to $50,000 per the State Statute.

The current projects within the QCREDA Zone will not be charged a Zone Amendment or a New Project Fee. The only fee they will be responsible for is a Certificate fee per vendor of $75/certificate.
